Beautiful and private property on the lake. Family enjoyed kayaking and fishing, evening fire pit fires, barbecuing on the deck and family togetherness in the open concept kitchen/livingroom
Very peaceful place with great sun sets & night skies; outdoor space is fantastic, even in the winter but indoors is a bit tight for 12 people & 3 dogs (2 bedrooms are tiny; 1 bedroom is next to oil tank w/o windows so not ideal hangouts; dining table is small requiring eating in shifts; plus hot water runs out after 1-2 showers and iron sediments may appear in the water!). If you don’t mind these nuisances (we didn’t) it’s an amazing place to spend time together … can highly recommend it!
The house is in a remote part of New Hampshire on a large lake. I brought a standup jetski and had no issues unloading into the water. There's a dock, kayaks, a canoe, and gear for other water based activities. We were able to grill and cook meals easily. The house was close enough to visit Lake Winnipesaukee and Portland. We had a blast and happily recommend the property to others!
We had a wonderful family vacation at this home. The lake is beautiful and quiet. The house is very comfortable and has everything you need to make family meals, enjoy the property and the lake. The upstairs bedroom is open to the living room/kitchen area and does not have air conditioning (which was tough with a couple of very hot/humid days we had). It was very easy to communicate with the property manager.
The property and house were very well kept. Both property manager and owner were very responsive to any inquiries we had during our stay. The only issue we had was the mini split was not blowing cold air, but the 2 small window units did a somewhat good job at cooling the house while there. Overall, the place was great and we enjoyed the house and exterior property while there.
Spacious lake house, enjoyed the kayaks, deck and fire pit and easy access to the lake. Spending time on the lake was wonderful and why we rented this property. We stayed during a heat wave and were unable to sleep in the upstairs loft due to the heat resulting in 2 guests sleeping on the couches in the living area. The main split unit on the main floor did not seem to be functional either so we were dependent on window units to cool the house. Other than the temperature- the property, location and overall amenities were great!

Pros: The house had plenty of room for our family group of nine. Easy check in. Well stocked kitchen. Lots of games to play. The corn hole was a huge hit. Huge deck. Canoes & Kayaks were great. Fishing is awesome right off the dock. Cons: bathroom showers needed a good cleaning, bedding had sand and dog hair, dirty dishes in dishwasher. Beach and lawn had a lot of goose poop which we raked up ourselves. Not great for swimming; lots of muck and lily pads. Beware of the hole in the deck, my grandson accidentally stepped into it & could have easily broken his leg.
